    99 5.4l occasional miss????

    I would try COPs first, but like designit said, the computer will still have codes after the CEL goes off, but you can erase them with a scanner.

    ABS light

    Ya, if it is flickering, I would check the connection, or maybe something could be dirty and messing with it? Never messed with them or had any problems.

    Oil Leak

    Hey guys, I've had an oil leak out of my passenger side valve cover for awhile. It's not bad, but enough that I can smell oil when I shut it off, but it doesn't go through much oil. At first I was thinking it was a valve cover gasket, but lately, I've noticed more oil on top of the valve cover...

    Went to the mountains yesterday

    Got done with one final yesterday and don't have another till Thursday, so I went for a little trail ride yesterday. Most of the snow is gone, but there are still some 15 foot drifts in the trees, and all of the "good" trails are marked off until the end of the month, but there was still some...

    Good headlight bulbs?

    I second the ultra star sylvanias. I have the next ones down like Panda, but they made a huge difference in mine. My downfall is that my lenses are bad, but I'll be getting new ones soon.

    I'm done!

    It feels great to do the job yourself. Just think of how much you saved and learned from doing it yourself, and you got a good deal on it. As for the motors, the 4.6 is pretty dang tough. The 4.6 also has forged internals, so if you ever want to run boost, your not going to break her. I've got...

    Speed is my thought after every time I get stuck. That was my thinking when I had my 2wd, but kind of backfired on me when I hit a drift in the dark and just got super stuck lol

    Ruts are the enemy lol I pulled one guy out that looked like he was pretty stuck in his 2500, but changed my mind as I went up a side hill through the same stuff to get to the other side and pull him through the rest of it. It's even worse when one of them doesn't know how to drive. Before I had...

    is this good??

    They will work fine for that. Get some pics soon. I'm curious how the 4 fters will look on the roof. . . HUGE!! I've got a few extra bucks in the bank, and am thinking about looking around town tomorrow to see if I can find any 4 ft stiks. I can find them, but will see how much they are. And...

    Doesn't it suck? Once you are stuck, you are stuck good, even takes a bit with another vehicle that has good traction. . . I bet the Chevy guys are happy they never have that problem. I pulled a bunch out last winter that I only had to give a little gas to get them out

    I completely agree with you. Now that it's summer, I'll point mine back up higher as long range lights. I since they are yellow, they worked great as fog lights this winter and made me a much happier man this winter while driving through a huge blizzard last December on my way back home. When I...

    is this good??

    If you go with the roof, I think springs would work. I don't have a spring in mine and they have bent a little. I'll see how much give my 48s will have and I might go with a spring. I'll decide that when I get them.

    is this good??

    Since I don't have the lady anymore, all the money is mine :) . . . As for the mounts, the roof would work great since all of the antenna is above the vehicle. They say at 2/3 should be above the roof line for best range. I love the look of mine where I have them. The expy sucks as far as place...

    is this good??

    You better Panda. . . lol If you don't like it, you'll at least have everything set up to swap antennas. Are you trying to put the voltmeter inline with something to watch the voltage? I can't wait to start getting parts for my truck to mod! I am still undecided how to set up the switches for...

    is this good??

    It could be a good deal, the reviews look good, but I'm not sure how good the antennas are. It will probably work, but I'm just going to wait till I have extra money to buy firestiks

    Built Ford Tough Sticker

    Settle down there Ross. . . I'll have to go down and take a picture tomorrow or something with my camera. I took a pic with my phone, but I don't know how to upload pics or have a card to put it on my computer.

    Built Ford Tough Sticker

    Now I know everybody here wants there own Built Ford Tough without your tax money sticker, but after a little drive by the local Ford dealer, you can now get one for free when buying a new Ford vehicle! Thought it was funny to see the stickers on all of the vehicles. Has anyone else seen these...

    no start

    When you say coil, do you mean the solenoid on the firewall? If that is the case, then your starter solenoid is going bad, its a pretty cheap replacement and will get your truck back in working order in no time :D

    Gas mileage

    Like smooth said, your getting average mileage. Most people with programmers say they help out a bit and a CAI and exhaust will help as well. . . when your foot is out of it. I usually average 14-16 hwy and don't calculate city cuz it sucks. The biggest thing that kills mileage when getting lift...

    98 Expedition LED Swap

    I can help you a little bit. So far I've done all of the door switches. They are 3mm and I bought them off superbrightleds.com. I've attempted to do the steering wheel lights, but I haven't been able to get them right yet, but I'm still working on that, just slowly. I will eventually do the...

    Loud squeeking from front suspension!

    Do you have much experience yourself? I did my ball joints last summer for the first time, and they aren't that hard, just take some time. For the ball joints, once you get the wheel off, and the parts out of the way, I had the hardest time with getting the hub off, but it's still pretty easy...
